Key Features of MQ-5 Gas Sensor Module For H2, LPG, CH4, CO Detector Module
- Multi-Gas Detection: Reliably senses H2, LPG, CH4, CO, and natural gas in a single compact module - ideal for comprehensive safety systems
- Dual Output Flexibility: Analog output for precise concentration measurement and digital output with adjustable threshold for simple alarm triggering
- Low Cross-Sensitivity to Alcohol: Compared to MQ-2 and MQ-3 sensors, the MQ-5 offers reduced sensitivity to alcohol vapors, providing cleaner readings for combustible gas detection
- Onboard Signal Conditioning: LM393 comparator and potentiometer eliminate the need for external circuitry - connect directly to your microcontroller
- Plug-and-Play with Arduino: Simple 4-pin header (VCC, GND, AO, DO) works out of the box with analogRead() or digitalRead() functions
- Visual Feedback: Power and trigger LEDs provide instant status indication without needing a serial monitor
Perfect For
- LPG Kitchen Leak Detector: Build a smart kitchen safety alarm that triggers a buzzer and sends mobile notifications when LPG gas leaks are detected - protect your home with an affordable IoT solution
- Methane Monitoring for Biogas Plants: Monitor CH4 concentration in biogas digesters and fermentation setups to optimize gas production and ensure safe operating levels
- Hydrogen Leak Alert System: Create a safety system for hydrogen fuel cell labs, battery charging stations, or electrolysis setups that detects H2 leaks and activates exhaust fans automatically
- Carbon Monoxide Safety Monitor: Design a CO detector for enclosed spaces like garages, workshops, or generator rooms - sound an alarm when CO levels exceed safe thresholds
- Smart Home Gas Safety with IoT: Combine with ESP32 or ESP8266 and Blynk/MQTT to build a Wi-Fi-connected gas monitoring dashboard with real-time alerts on your smartphone
- Multi-Sensor Air Quality Station: Pair the MQ-5 with MQ-135 (air quality), DHT22 (temperature/humidity), and a dust sensor to create a comprehensive environmental monitoring station
